JAZF1 safeguards human endometrial stromal cells survival and decidualization by repressing the transcription of G0S2

Communications Biology, 2023
Decidualization of human endometrial stromal cells (hESCs) is essential for the maintenance of pregnancy, which depends on the fine-tuned regulation of hESCs survival, and its perturbation contributes to pregnancy loss. However, the underlying mechanisms
